8 - Stones of Strength - This is a head-to-head event where progressively heavier stones are lifted
onto a platform. A head-to-head finale event will take place whereby stones are lifted onto a 4ft x
10ft platform. Heaviest stone 160kg.
Knebøyen er økt til 210kg så da blir det spennende om jeg får opp 1 rep. Det er lov å bruke belte og bind på alle øvelser. I markløften er det lov med reimer og sumostance. Så da har jeg vel en smule bedre sjanse enn med konvensjonell mark. Håper jeg klarer å få opp 120 i stokk som tredje løft, det er jo bare 3,5 kg under maxen min. Duckwalk har jeg aldri trent og nå begynner jo gradvis deload mot konkurransen. steinserien , øltønne drag og conans wheel, burde være øvelser jeg kan hevde meg i.
